Well first whats your states SMOG laws? 2nd its a great Idea if you don't mind the sound. 3rd You would need a 02 simulator. so you don't throw any codes.

I'll be installing an ALTA Catless header here soon....currently sitting on my floor. I can't wait...it's going to be loud.

How much did that run you? I wanted to get the obx header and run either a high flow cat or no cat? What high flow should i run with an obx?

I bought mine used from a fellow NAMer. They run like $650ish new for catless, and like $850ish with the cat. I paid $325.

If you run an OBX header, a lot of people run the stock cat on it...just a suggestion.

Oh it is a great idea....why do I care about smog? It doesn't matter to me...plus Ohio never does smog checks.
